No, 30k gets you some ship JPEGs, there is no game.

There are people on their forums that are in for over $30,000 - and are proud of it.

No evidence that doesn't come from CIG/RSI, which immediately makes me dubious.

Still, assuming the funding tracker is true, the money is coming from somewhere.

The Game footage they showed looked really good. So not sure I understand why people say the game at present is so shit??

This in a game where you currently can't walk around your ship without falling through the floor, or can glitch out through 90% of the walls that are supposed to contain you within the space station. Oh, and where if you go into hyperspace at a certain place, you get water splash effects on your screen, because CryEngine has a water layer on every map that they've just hidden and not bothered to work out how to disable properly

If you're a small studio crowdfunding a game, then yes, raising enough money to come in the top 10 most expensive games of all time is absolutely bloody enough.

Don't play Destiny 2, it's a turd.

edit : thinking about it, I also have a free copy of destiny 2 to play too, I guess I know what my sunday is going to be. I was almost bored enough to buy a PSVR, but that can wait now...

Star citizen. 2 minutes in and I turned it off in disgust. £200m seems to have been spent on making choosing how to invert your Y axis as complicated as possible.

There isn't an invert Y button, there are literally 50+ different toggles for inversion of everything, across all possible concurrent control schemes (mouse, joystick, keyboard, gamepad). Each of them is a compounded tree where you can select inversion for FPS mode, flight mode, hangar mode, turret mode, ground vehicle mode, free look mode, walking mode and some other modes. Select inversion for any of those modes and it inverts everything. X axis too... So you have to drill down into each and invert the Y axis for each mode individually, but it's not called Y axis, it's called pitch, or view, or something else dependent on the mode you are in. And you have to repeat the same exercise for each control method.
So I did all that, took ages, game crashed coming out of the control menu and starting it up again it has lost all the settings...
So I do it all again, get it setup right. Didn't crash this time! Start the game by going into my hangar... the x axis is inverted, even though I told it not to be...

Turned off the game and gave up, what a load of shit.

There's simply no reason for them to actually release this game - the money just keeps pouring in.

Also - didn't listen to my own advice!

it's been 18 months since i last tried it, should probably give it another go and see just how bad it is still

I'm assuming it's only a matter of time before they start trying to sell their spaceship JPEGs as NFTs instead of just regular JPEGs.
